Maharashtra AI and innovation infrastructure development
Overview
The Maharashtra government is advancing plans to establish a 300-acre AI Innovation City near the Navi Mumbai International Airport. In partnership with the Tata Group, the project involves an $11 billion investment to develop a hub for large-scale AI data centres, semiconductors, high-performance computing, and Global Capability Centers.
Building on this infrastructure, the state has introduced the Maharashtra Artificial Intelligence Policy 2026. This policy aims to establish dedicated AI incubators and provide training for more than 200,000 professionals and youth. The broader strategic goal is to leverage Maharashtra’s existing startup ecosystem—which currently hosts over 18% of India’s active ventures—to transform the state into a global innovation hub.
Leadership has emphasized connecting talent from regional centers like Nagpur and Nashik to the global market as part of a long-term economic vision to reach a $1 trillion economy by 2030.
